Inhaltsangabe

How much of what we call "mind" exists below our consciousness? Can we access seemingly inaccessible memories? Is it possible to train and focus the conscious mind to tap our unconscious reserves? In this forgotten classic from 1903, William Walker Atkinson-one of the most influential thinkers of the early-20th-century "New Age" philosophy of New Thought-explores the unknown realms of human memory and how we can increase our personal power and grow as mindful beings by becoming more aware of our own psyches. Atkinson discusses: . the subconscious storehouse . attention and concentration . acquiring impressions . eye perception and memory . ear perception and memory . remembrance, recollection, and recognition . and more. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today, including "Yogi Ramacharaka" and "Theron Q. Dumont."

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

William Walker Atkinson (5 December 1862-22 November 1932) was a multifaceted figure-an attorney, businessman, publisher, and prolific writer-who played a significant role in the early New Thought movement. Beyond his legal and commercial endeavours, he was deeply involved in occult studies and esoteric philosophy. Atkinson is believed to be the mind behind numerous works published under various pseudonyms, including Theron Q. Dumont, Swami Panchadasi, and Yogi Ramacharaka, among others. His penchant for anonymity and extensive use of pen names have contributed to his relative obscurity today, despite his recognition in past editions of Who's Who in America, Religious Leaders of America, and other reference works. Over the last three decades of his life, he authored more than 100 books, many of which have remained in circulation since the early 20th century.
